The E-13B MICR font (T ROY E-13B) can be used for printing the MICR line in many countries, including the
United States. In some European and Latin American countries, the CMC-7 MICR font is used instead. TROY
can provide customer support for your MICR applications only if you use the supplied TROY MICR fonts.
The CMC-7 MICR font (T ROY CMC-7) can be used for printing the MICR line in many countries, including
some European and Latin American countries. TROY can provide customer support for your MICR applications
only if you use the supplied TROY MICR fonts.
Your TROY Security Printing Solution includes a large, small and enhanced convenience amount font (T
ROY
ECF, T ROY LCF, T ROY SCF). These fonts consist of numbers with their alphabetic spellings placed directly
below the numerical character. These fonts are designed for use in the Legal Amount field only (located directly
below the Payee field). You can enter alphanumeric symbols representing the amount of the check into this field.
The TROY Security font (T ROY S ECURITY , T ROY S ECURITY S PANISH ) is designed to prevent fraudulent alteration
to the Amount field on the check. The font consists of numbers with their alphabetic spellings placed directly
below the numerical character with a wavy lined pattern running through each character. These fonts are
designed for use in the Legal Amount field only (located directly below the Payee field on the check). You can
enter numeric symbols representing the amount of the check into this field. During document processing,
convenience amounts may be visually read and encoded on the check by bank personnel. In this case, a large
Convenience Amount font may best meet your bank’s requirements.
The TROY OCR fonts (T
ROY OCR-A AND T ROY OCR-B) are used to print any information (names, addresses,
amounts) on the check that is to be read by automated readers using optical character recognition.
The TROY Reverse Helvetica font is used to print names and addresses on the back of transparent envelope
windows for use in pressure-seal machines.
The POSTNET (Postal Numeric Encoding Technique) font (T
ROY POSTNET) is used to represent the nine-digit
postal zip code below the postal address line. Using the POSTNET font on your mailing envelopes and postcards
will significantly decrease postal processing time and reduce the chance of errors when manual data entry is
required at the post office.
The British Pound and European currency symbols are used in place of the U.S. dollar sign for the respective
European country and can be selected to print in the audit reports. A decimal point or comma can be selected for
use with these currency symbols.
